@Ash I think you think you know what you are talking about but you actually don't know the facts. The fact is that suboxone DOES NOT show up on a dot drug test period. It is Jan 2015 and I had a dot physical and drug test and it did not show up. The only way they can test that is a special test for suboxone. Maybe your job requires that but that isn't how it is everywhere. I've had multiple drug test and NONE shows suboxone. The only one that does is at my doctors office because that's what they are testing for to make sure you are taking it. So get your facts straight first before you start spewing off misleading info on here to people that are looking for straight answers.

Thabk you. I know you are correct from multiple tests that i was using suboxone. Oxycontin and vicodin and percoset.
I use to have a problem and it never came up. Now i don't thank God.
Thanks for the info. People on suboxone are trying to help themselves dont worry. It does not come up on a dot 5 panel test

Here is what the transportation.gov website has to say. Doesn't get more concrete than this. They DO NOT TEST FOR SYNTHETIC OPIATES OR SUBOXONE. THEY ONLY TEST FOR THESE DRUGS SPECIFICALLY!!!!

hey driver just wanted to let u know what happened in my case with dot... I have been driving about 6 years now and had to renew my physical for dot and homeland.. my doctor put me on 3 subs a day about 6 months ago and I was nervous about felling so I drunk a bunch of water before I went in I had weaned myself down to 1 a day the month before bit my drug screen came back negative the only thing that happened was right before I left the dr. said she couldn't sign off because it showed on my record I filled 90 subs so I had my doctor take me off them and all is well ... also the doctor pretty much said I could take suboxone illigally and they'll never know it's just I can't get then prescribed now tell me if that's not messed up... ps if not clear I took 1 the day before test and still negative... I hoped this helped I believe us drivers should stick together plus I know how hard it is to get people to understand suboxone is a miracle drug that has never altered my ability to operate anything to be honest it makes me more alert and takes my mind off everything but driving...

Wrong. They test for coke, pcp, opi (heroin, codeine, and morphine), amphetamine, and thc. I have a class A cdl and have taken several randoms. The response im replying to is dead wrong. Didnt want any to read it n panic, as i would've years ago with the same question.

Wrong... doctors now prescribe subs for pain relief instead of giving people standard opiates. The whole 'suboxone for addicts' has changed and is being used differently this day and age.

What happens if a driver is not truthful about his/her health history on the medical examination form?

PreviousNext.






The FMCSA medical certification process is designed to ensure drivers are physically qualified to operate commercial vehicles safely. Each driver is required to complete the Health History section on the first page of the examination report and certify that the responses are complete and true. The driver must also certify that he/she understands that inaccurate, false or misleading information may invalidate the examination and medical examiner's certificate.
FMCSA relies on the medical examiner's clinical judgment to decide whether additional information should be obtained from the driver's treating physician. Deliberate omission or falsification of information may invalidate the examination and any certificate issued based on it. A civil penalty may also be levied against the driver under 49 U.S.C. 521(b)(2)(b), either for making a false statement of for concealing a disqualifying condition.

I gaurantee Suboxone WILL NOT show up on a DOT 5 Panel drug test. I've been thru this test about 5 times and it does not show. Suboxone is not expensive to test for, as one can buy the drip stick tests online for $3.00 per stick. One issue DOT tested patients need to be aware of now is that, MANY big chain clinics such as Concerta are having their DOT examiners are reviewing the patients Prescription history in the National Database. (The same database used by physicians to prevent Dr. Shopping.)

If you test positive for a prescription drug on your D.O.T. UA and have a doctors prescription, you will pass! The only way your employer will find out is if you tell them, as it is against federal law for anyone to share your medical info with anyone without your written permission!
I am a CDL driver and work 2 seasonal jobs, so I take 2 UA's a year, plus randoms, and have yet to see anything more than a 5 panel test SO FAR!
Please disregard the mis-informative posts by user "ASH". An employer can choose to give in house drug tests for anything, and some are even using hair follicle tests. Fortunately most of the companies who are getting ridiculous with pre-hire tests are not places good experienced drivers would want to work anyway!

Ash,
Go see a shrink pal, by the way you carry on, I hope you are not a driver, not even 4 wheeler!
As for Conway, they are not that great, I would never drive for them or recommend them to anyone.
A friend of mine is on a suboxone program and has successfully quit hydrocodone, and is on his last month of tapering off suboxone. Who BTW passed a DOT UA a couple days ago!
No thanks to fools like Ash and the lousy company he works for!

Your employer can and will give u a drug test of there choice testing for everything possible. But truth is the federal government just test for five drugs that were popular 30 years ago. Think of it like this bin Colorado pot is legal by the state but not the federal government. Well Conway test for everything bc they get a good reputation high csa score and they save money on there insurance that's the only reason they do it. It's about money. Companies do not care about u they care about money. A dot test for a cdl does not test for a lot of common drugs suboxone being one

Ash will u face the fact that ur wrong. A dot drug screen is mandated by the federal government. Now ur company that u probably drive a forklift in can give u a test that will show suboxone. But that's just so they can get cheap insurance. They don't care about u at all. It's about money. I have worked around Conway all my life and there a bunch of turds. So u guys are fine take ur drug test and don't worry. I promise u will not be disappointed. Now if u wreck and it shows up ur in a whole bunch of s***. But that's not the case right. Oh and ash. U can seek councling for ur attention craving behavior. None of us know u or ever will so impressing us is pointless. It makes u look silly. Gotta go. Got lots of life to love. Go ahead and write back. I'll never see it. Lol

Check it out. I had a random dot and I popped hot for cocaine. Anyway I had to do the essay, P counselor. I had to do a whole bunch of NA meetings and stuff like that. my SAP counselor aka for substance abuse professional told me they got drug screen tests for opiates PCP, THC, cocaine and marijuana. Wait a minute PCP, THC, cocaine, amphetamines and opiates. He also told me that percocet and oxycodone will not show up. Now here's the crazy part. I took my drug test to go back to work and the day before I took 3 10 milligram oxycodone I passed. I did not get a call from the Mr O. so that tells me that they obviously do not test for it. obviously I got my job back and I am allowed to return to safety-sensitive functions. now I take a couple Suboxone every once in awhile because I was a little freaked out over taking the oxys but honestly I'd rather take a few oxys than a Suboxone. so I'm still a little nervous about taking my oxys even though that's what happened to me. I passed and nothing happened but I'm still a little sketchy about taking my oxycodone. I really wish I could. I would like to have somebody come on here that says they took oxycodone and still passed. I believe that you will pass because like some other gentleman said they do not check for synthetic opiate only vicodin and codeine and methadone, but then again they might not even test for those. They probably just test for codeine like a Tylenol 3 and heroin.
